现代正忙于开发下一代劳恩斯轿跑车,近日谍照记者拍到了测试车照片,该车将于2016年上市。当时现代正在美国对车辆内部结构进行耐热性测试。车厂希望该车能应对包括奥迪A5和宝马4系在内的德系车型，因此预计新车将进一步高档化。从照片看，新车造型风格将深受去年首尔车展亮相的HND-9 Coupe概念车影响，不过最终量产版可能还会有变化。至于动力系统，该车顶级款将与轿跑车共享那台5.0升V8引擎，但功率将提升至450马力，搭配八速自动变速器和现代新的HTRAC全轮驱动系统。

 

2016 Hyundai Genesis Coupe spied

This week, the season of mules is upon us and the next in line to be caught by our photographer is the Hyundai Genesis Coupe. The Korean company is busy preparing the next generation model ready for an appearance on our roads in 2016.

 

The mule was caught hot weather testing in the United States and is primarily testing some of the goodies that lie beneath its skin. We expect Hyundai to take the coupe slightly more upmarket as they look to position it alongside premium competitors such as the Audi A5 and BMW 4-Series.

 

The styling language was tentatively previewed in the HND-9 Coupe Concept at the Seoul Motor Show last year but we should get a better idea when the full body prototypes begin testing.

 

The same 5.0-liter V8 unit that already motivates the range topping version of the Genesis sedan will almost certainly be used in the coupe. However, we expect a tuned up version that will pump in excess of 450 ponies to the wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission system and Hyundai's new HTRAC all-wheel-drive system.
